Eulàlia Grau

After training in Fine Arts at the Escola Eina and in design in Milan, she began her work starting from collage, using photographs taken from the written press, adopting a critical attitude towards information given out by the communication media.

She criticises the way in which the press, in line with the political and economic powers, serves the interests of what she perceives as a controlled, censured, unjust and male-dominated society.

She believes that media propagates social models of cultural and economic dominance, as well as forms of ideological and physical violence.

She believes her aesthetic option cannot be understood without her strong ethical commitment: that it holds a prominent place among the artistic practices that make up the space of expression occupied by feminist movements at the end of modernity, and that are part of the changes in opinion that radically altered our society at the end of Francoist Spain and during the transition that followed.

[2] Furthermore, a common feature of her work is the effort to unmask the differences that tarnish our environment, the structural violence that permeates everyday life and, also, the macrosystem in which we find ourselves immersed.
